With the awareness of the importance of list building, comes a recent Internet Marketing trend which was started just a couple of years ago for the mutual benefits of all Internet Marketers and mailing list owners. This method is more recognized as a “starting a Give Away venture”. In a real sense, a Give Away event is much like a big time version of ad swaps. In a nutshell, a group of mailing list owners partner together and pool in their individual gifts in one limited-time event. Each … [Read more...]
Using Free Reports to Build Your List
April 25, 2009 By Leave a Comment
Aside from pre-selling your products and affiliated offers, the other purpose of your free viral report should be to build your mailing list. This is because if you are unable to pre-sell, let alone sell, the products and services featured in your free report, the last ditch effort should be to collect leads. In short, if you cannot convert the reader into a ready buyer, you should then attempt to convert him or her into your subscriber. In that manner, you can still follow up with your reader … [Read more...]
Building Your List with Paid eZine Advertising
April 21, 2009 By Leave a Comment
Some Internet Marketers can get clueless when it comes to unleashing the full potential of paid eZine advertising. One of the most common dilemmas is that whether should the Internet Marketer advertise the product or service he is selling directly to the subscribers of the eZine he is paying advertising for? This can be a wise method, but with ifs and buts. For one, the advertisement must be compelling and attention grabbing. Secondly, there is no telling if the eZine’s subscribers constantly … [Read more...]

Ad Swap Magic
April 13, 2009 By Leave a Comment
Here is a little used technique you can implement to build your mailing list for no additional cost. I call it “using subscribers to make subscribers” like much in the context of “using money to make money”. This simple list building formula can be summed up in two words: ad swap. Generally, you trade advertisements with other eZine publishers, preferably of the same mailing list size or bigger. You broadcast the eZine publisher’s advertisement to your mailing list while the eZine … [Read more...]
Converting Every Visitor into Subscriber
April 9, 2009 By Leave a Comment
If a person visits your website and leaves, chances are that he or she will not come back, especially if there are no compelling reasons to do so. After all, we all behave rather impulsively on the Internet, so much so that we can easily forget where we were 10 web pages ago. But the bottom line is that your visitor may not come back to your website again. If 1,000 visitors visit your website, leave and never come back again, you can imagine the amount of potential revenue lost, simply because … [Read more...]
Deciding the Nature of Your eZine
March 24, 2009 By Leave a Comment
When choosing a topic to publish your eZine on, you must consider some important success factors that can determine the flow and goal of your eZine. You are encouraged to write non-time sensitive contents such as short tips, mini stories and interviews. Doing so enables you to create content in advance so that you can conveniently dispense to your subscribers at a later schedule. Topic-wise, you will do well to cater to a starving market that will always be on demand for the kind of content … [Read more...]
Which One is More Important – Product or Mailing List?
March 20, 2009 By Leave a Comment
If you would ask this question, “Which one is more important – the mailing list or the product?” any savvy marketer would answer you, “The mailing list”. Principally, any wise business person puts the importance of hungry demand (and not just any demand) in front of the product. In other words, there is no product if there is no demand! And a mailing list represents the demand or your business if you would like to call it. If you frequent the Joint Venture forums and membership sites … [Read more...]
Types Of Autoresponders For Internet Marketing
May 21, 2008 By Leave a Comment
There are several autoresponders available on the Internet, although they are divided into three main types – remotely hosted, locally hosted, and desktop hosted. For many Internet marketers, locally and desktop hosted are far preferred over remotely hosted. Although remote hosted are good, locally and desktop hosted autoresponders will allow you complete control – as you are running the program on your own site. If you have a domain name, you can use as many autoresponders as you like, … [Read more...]
